Every single player was amazing today. Everyone should be hugely proud. With plenty of effort, skill and determination the Mighty Red and Blacks played 3 group matches, winning all 3, then winning the semi final and ending up runners up after losing the final.

First match against Lumley FC, won 4-0. Scorers: Benjamin x1, Oliver Chapman x1, Cole x1, Preston x1.

Game 2 vs Jarrow Sharks, won 3-1. Scorers: Dylan x1, Cole x2.

Game 3 vs Deerness Valley Thunder, won 5-1. Scorers: Cole x3, Oliver Chapman x1, Dylan x1.

Semi final vs Wear Utd Blues, won 5-0. Scorers: Cole x2, Preston x2.

Final vs Foundation of Light white, lost 9-1. Scorer: Josh or Cole x1. Not sure who got the final touch.

Big mention for our stand in keeper for the day Lochlan Cairns, he played amazing in every match and made some excellent saves.

Everyone should be hugely proud. Tiredness and a bad ref making the final difficult. They showed spells of how good they are and were unlucky. The scoreline flattering the opposition. 2 and half hours of football and a fully deserved runners up trophy for everyone.

Well done to everyone and as your manager I’m really proud with the attitude and effort from every player. Thank you to the parents for the amazing support.
